Survival still realistic Survival still realistic

Seaham Red Star’s season has been marked by periods of inconsistency, with recent successes providing renewed optimism. Reflecting on their performance thus far, first team coach Michael Johnson acknowledges the team's struggles but remains positive about their trajectory.

"Our season has been varied in terms of performance," Johnson stated. "We commenced reasonably well but encountered difficulties during the middle phase of the season. We have not been significantly outplayed by many teams; most matches have been closely contested, often decided by a single goal. Unfortunately, our ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities has sometimes been lacking."

Nevertheless, Seaham Red Star has recently demonstrated significant improvement, achieving three consecutive victories through remarkable performances. The challenge now lies in sustaining this positive momentum.

Looking ahead, Johnson emphasizes the importance of effective game management and capitalizing on scoring opportunities. "As a group, we recognize the need to manage games more effectively and convert our chances when they arise. The return of key players from injury will facilitate this process."

With the reintegration of crucial players into the squad, there is hope that Seaham Red Star can transform closely contested matches into consistent point accumulations.

With a renewed sense of confidence, Johnson and his teammates are committed to advancing in the Northern League standings. "Our objective now is to consistently secure points and focus on climbing up the table rather than looking down."

Johnson is unsurprised by the competitive nature of the Northern League, which he considers the premier division in non-league football. "There are no easy matches in this league, and that will not change. It is always a challenge, and this season has been no different."

As Seaham Red Star aims to build on their recent form, the emphasis will be on maintaining consistency, clinical finishing, and ensuring greater success in the second half of the season.
